"Perfect nga sa exam, pero sa taguan ng feelings? Lagapak."
I, Aurelia Vienne Calixte, live by one rule: To never let the cracks show. I'm back in this town, where it all started, searching for answers to the whims of my past. I'm the queen of composure, acing exams, crushing deadlines, and crambling my way to the top-no time for a love life.
I get what I want, when I want it, with a smile. My life's a perfectly curated highlight reel... until Maya, my cousin-a walking chaos theory-crashes back into the picture. Amidst thesis stress, inner monologues, and battles with perfectionism, Demien enters my life.
He's a heartbreaker, and I irk with him because of it-we clash spectacularly, fueled by a bet on commitment. I believe in committing when the time's right and it's the real deal; Demien doesn't buy it. He thinks love brings bad decisions and actions, and he'd decline it even if it hit him. Enemies at first glance, we spar constantly. But as our paths keep crossing, we realize that: what if the walls we've built are our biggest enemy? Can we risk letting the cracks show, or will we lock our heartaches away?
